Mount Maunganui, one of New Zealand’s well known surf destinations. White sand beaches and easily accessible surf breaks line this beautiful coastline.
Featuring plenty of surf schools and a fun beach break, the Mount – as it is known by locals – is popular with both beginner and expert surfers alike. The white sand beach stretches as far as the eye can see, and at the tip is the dormant volcano Mauao.
